Re: Encoder Code

We're using all dead axles so It's far easier to mount it on the gearbox output shaft. There is a either a 12/28 or 16/28 (depending on how many motors were using in the drive) reduction. The stats above are for the 16/28. Also, the res for above is .33 and .43 inches. [also, the sprocket ratio only effects the resolution]

I think we'll go with 64 counts. That gives us about 1586 ticks per second (per side) and a res of .17 inches. That leaves plenty of interrupts open for possible future addons.

Does that sound good?
